snowflake eel

Hi all. My brother and I are going to be new owners of a Snowflake Eel. I've done some research into owning the eel, 35% water change per week, feeding live/frozen food, tank size [55gallon if correct], likes coral base/dark hiding spots, only keeping one eel in the tank, etc. etc. I was...

Hello, I’ve got an 18” snowflake eel, who seems quite healthy, except for something that looks kinda like a tumor on the roof of her mouth. Seems to be growing. Still eating and doesn’t seem to have changed behavior. Anyone know if there’s anything I can or should do?

About 2 weeks ago I bought a snowflake eel from an LFS that had it eating krill just dropped into it's small tank (not from tongs or skewer). I introduced him into the tank and he has not eaten yet. At first I attributed it to getting accustomed to the tank and I did change my rock work a few...

So, I have a snowflake eel that I have been keeping for the longest time, in fact he's my first ever fish, or eel. He is 27 inches long and a diameter of 3 inches. I have always fed him Rod's Predator Blend ever since it came out, until now. He is WAY too big for Rod's food, it's like an...

So, I just got a snowflake eel today from my lfs. He’s had him for 3 weeks and doing well. I fed him tonight. I was wondering how much should you feed him. Since he’s only like a foot if that maybe give or take some. I cut up a small raw shrimp and gave him about a third of that shrimp. Just...

Im wanting to buy a small snowflake eel to put in my 55 gallon long fowlr tank. At the moment I have two Occelaris clowns, one is about 2.5" and the other is 1", and one firefish goby that is about 3.5" along with a handful of small hermits. I realize the hermits will slowly dissapear with the...

This may be a silly question, but for those who have a snowflake eel, at what time do you guys feed your eel (not how often)? Just wondering.

So I have a massive snowflake eel in my tank that I'm considering selling but I dont know a good price for them at the size he is at. Most I find online is for 12" max, and mine is at least 30" of not more and a little bit bigger around than a golf ball. This guy eats 8 silverside almost every day.

Just felt like sharing a short gif of my snowflake eel eating a crawfish. (Yes I know it's bad for him long term, but it's just a treat.) https://gfycat.com/ActualAmpleIzuthrush
